No there’s nothing like spending 45 minutes of a Friday morning on a conference call with a bunch of tech folks working for our ISP, trying to get some clear idea of what policies and filtering they have in place now, and what new ones are coming, only to come to the conclusion that we should all have a sit-down sometime in the near future to evaluate everything involving how we’re connected to them.

Why do I get the feeling that big changes are afoot, and that I’m going to be spending the rest of this year trying to get everything implemented and running properly? (On the other hand, maybe those changes will involve using stuff that isn’t currently on my resume? That could be good..)

    Oh yeah the Knoppix CD has been burned and I did do a quick boot using it on my work machine, just to make sure I had a good CD. The setup didn’t find any soundcard. I’ve yet to have any Linux install configure the integrated audio on any of my PC’s that have that….
